ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to:

Tanouye Tenshin Roshi, Jackson Morisawa, and Suhara Koun Osho, who have worked patiently to make Zen and the Ways accessible to Westerners. Chozen-Ji Kyudo was created by, and reflects, their kiai. In addition, Jackson Morisawa's knowledge of kyudo, the Japanese language, and his artistic skills have contributed greatly to this book.

Two old friends and training partners, Mike Sayama and Gordon Greene, who have helped me in many ways over the years, and have also contributed much to this book; and Steve Wallman, a new friend and training partner, who has given me valuable editorial assistance.

My wife, Erica, who has accompanied me half way around the world and has tolerated long absences so that I could pursue my training.
